So... there was an election last week! And despite doom-and-gloom polls, and the media trying to gaslight suburban women, democracy and reproductive freedom won big. Turns out, voters don’t support extremism. Who knew? (We did!)Our very own host Jasmine Clark won her election in Georgia, and so did our host Amanda Weinstein’s husband Casey in Ohio. But those wins were only the beginning. Democrats won the Senate! There was historic turnout, especially among young people! Democrats swept Michigan! And everywhere that reproductive rights were placed directly on the ballot, voters supported choice.Of course there were some disappointments and some races we didn’t win, and Georgia is headed into a very important runoff election. But we proved that when we show up and use our voices, it matters. We're going to keep working and keep having these important conversations, because democracy doesn't just happen around an election. It happens every day of the year.Next week is Thanksgiving, and we’d love to hear from all of our listeners about what you’re thankful for! We encourage everyone to leave us a voicemail at (614) 600-2480‬ and we’ll play your replies on next week’s pod.For a transcript of this episode, please email theswppod@redwine.blue.
